They're beautiful, Stacy.

The color is so intense it almost looks neon! They're certainly one of the most stunningly plumaged songbirds in the northwest.

Do you plan on looking for one of their nests in a month or so?

Thank you Tom, on the Idaho Nevada border here the fish and game have installed roughly 500 little bird houses along all the back roads in the desert. So on my game travels these fellas are often perched along the road, be it on sagebrush or fence post. I'am adapting to birding since their is an abundance of species around here. Glad these could be enjoyed.

These are beautiful Stacy. The background colors and the wooden fence posts really add to the shots. Composition on the first one is perfect!

I really dig the first. I love how the bird's head is turned the same way as the poles
